Meta tag lists are used on particular search pages to show the meta tags contained in the list as additional search criteria and/or display them in the results table as additional output columns.
Whether a search page uses a meta tag list is stipulated by the implementation and cannot be influenced by the user. Meta tag lists cannot be created independently; only existing lists can be edited in the backend.
At present, meta tag lists are primarily used in connection with on-screen reports to expand the selection of filter criteria in the detail view to include user-specific object meta tags or output them in the results table.
Only for reports
Metatag lists can only be used to adapt reports as opposed to user lists which can be adapted and specified for backend-views.
Functions of the Meta Tag List Manager
Edit
A meta tag list is actually comprised of two lists that are managed in separate tabs:
-
"Criteria for extended search": The entries in this list are available as fields in the extended search and can be shown as additional search criteria
-
"Tables": The entries in this list are also available as additional output columns and can be included in the results table.
The toolbar functions enable new meta tags to be added to a list, individual meta tags to be removed from a list, and the order of list entries to be changed.

-

The "Standard" checkbox controls whether a list entry is displayed by default as an output line or included as a search criterion or only provided to the user as an option.
